Former Trump Campaign chairman Paul Manafort and his associate rick gates are the first to face charges in the russia election probe. And there may be others soon. Both men pleaded not guilty yesterday to a dozen charges. They include conspiracy against the United States, Money Laundering and tax fraud. We also learn yesterday that George Papadopoulos, a Foreign Policy adviser to the Trump Campaign, pleaded guilty to other charges. Help admits he lied to the fbi about his contacts with russian interests. The 30yearold had no prior criminal record. Papadopoulos was arrested and his case was under seal for the last three months while special prosecute effort mueller investigated Campaign Links to russia. The government called papadopoulos, quote, a proactive cooperator. Pa jeff pegues in washington. That term indicates George Papadopoulos may now be actively working with the special counsels office to reveal who in the Trump Campaign knew he was communicating with russian operatives and when. Papadopoulos arrest and guilty plea was a bombshell yesterday. Showing that he, too, was offered damaging information on Hillary Clinton by russian operatives. So help me god. Two days after President Trumps inauguration, George Papadopoulos was in israel and appeared to still be acting on behalf of the campaign. No relationship between the u. S. And all of israel according to court documents, less than a year earlier, papadopoulos began emailing Trump Campaign officials and pushing meetings with russian operatives. At a National Security meeting, papadopoulos told mr. Trump that he had connections that could help arrange a meeting between then candidate trump and president putin. Ten days earlier, mr. Trump introductioned his newly minted Foreign Policy team to editors from the washington post. George papadopoulos. Hes an oil and energy consultant, excellent guy. On monday night, mr. Trumps lawyer told cbs news that the president definitely doesnt have a clue who George Papadopoulos is. Papadopoulos communication with the russian operatives began when the main contact nicknamed the professor told him in april 2016 that he had dirt on then candidate Hillary Clinton including thousands of emails. That occurred well before the Democratic National committee made the intrusion by Russian Hackers public. In may 2016, papadopoulos emailed a Highranking Campaign official. Russia has been eager to meet mr. Trump. That email was forwarded with this commentary. Donald trump is not doing these trips. It should be someone low level in the campaign so as not to send any signal. In august, after mr. Trump accepted the republican nomination for president , a Campaign Supervisor encourage d papadopoulos to make the trip to russia if it is feasible. Another former trump Foreign Policy adviser carter page did make a trip to russia. Where he gave a speech in july 2016. Was asked last night whether he exchanged emails with papadopoulos. Probably a few. Email chains about russia . It may have come up from time to time. Carter page and several other Trump Campaign officials have been under fbi scrutiny for more than a year now. Papadopoulos is facing up to five years in prison but he wont be sentenced until the Mueller Investigation is over. Norah. All right, jeff, thank you so much. The indictment against Paul Manafort and rick gates claims they set up a Money Laundering scheme that hid tens of millions of dollars from a pro russian ukrainian political party. The two men allegedly funneled more than 75 million through foreign banks. Court papers say manafort used his hidden overseas wealth to enjoy a lavish lifestyle. Hes accused of spending more than 6 million in renovations and landscaping for this home on new yorks long island in the hamptons. The indictment says manafort also spent nearly 1 million at a virginia rug store and millions more on clothing, antiques and luxury cars. First indictments in the russia investigation put the white house on the defensive. President trump wanted to focus on his tax overhaul push this week. Before he goes on a 12day trip to asia. Margaret brennans at the white house. Margaret, good morning. Reporter good morning. The Trump White House expects the special counsels investigation to wrap up soon and says its business as usual here. The president s lawyer insists mr. Trump is not considering firing Robert Mueller. The president and first lady handed out candy on the south lawn after white house officials said they werent at all spooked by the bombshell indictments on monday. Were not worried about it distracting because it doesnt have anything to do with us. Reporter chief of staff john kelly tried to distance the president from the unfolding controversy. All of the activities as i understand it they were indieted for was long before they met trump. Reporter another source say he discussed it multiple times a day. Distracting, as it would be for any citizen to be investigated. Reporter the reports swirled the president was fuming monday as russia indictments played out on tv. A senior republican told the washington post, everyone was freaking out. But white house lawyer ty cobb pushed back, telling cbs news, i dont know where the perception of agita comes from but its not real. And the walls are not caving in. Paul manafort has done an amazing job. Reporter the president claimed any alleged criminal actions by former Campaign Chair Paul Manafort predated the election, tweeting, sorry, butting this is years ago, before Paul Manafort was part of the Trump Campaign. But the indictment contradicted that claim. Details of manaforts criminal activities range from 2006 to february of this year. And hes accused of laundering money during the campaign. He was a volunteer. Reporter White House Press secretary Sarah Sanders also insisted George Papadopoulos who pled guilty to lying to federal a gents attempted to arrange meetings with russian officials on his own accord. The actions he took would have been on his own. Reporter the papadopoulos plea agreement made public yesterday did reveal he actually was encouraged by a Campaign Adviser to make contact with the russians. Now, the president tweeted this morning that few people knew the young lowlevel staffer knew george and called him a proven liar. Margaret, thanks. Paula reid is at Federal District court in washington where pana for tmanafort and ga appeared yesterday. Whats the significance of the charges . This is incredibly significant because while the white house can certainly try to distance itself from Paul Manaforts private business or his luxury lifestyle, its much harder to distance itself from a Campaign Aide, specifically a Campaign Aide who has emails and other evidence suggests there were efforts to set up meetings between the Trump Campaign and russia and that also suggest that perhaps the campaign knew that russia was in the possession of some of former secretary of states Hillary Clintons emails. Does the prosecutor also send a message we know what were doing and were in business here . Absolutely. Just look at the choreography from yesterday. The anticipation built as manafort made his way into the fib field office. There were cameras lining the sidewalks to capture the moment. Special counsel issued a press release. Shared the indictment with us. Just as we were getting to the bottom of that 31page indictment, there was a bombshell, out of chicago, that he had another set of charges with a cooperating witness who had participated in the campaign. But i will say trying to controc is also what got comey in trouble. Youre talking about papadopoulos, this 30yearold aide, and this theyd sealed the criminal complaint. He was arresteded more than three months ago. In this criminal complaint if you read it, they call him a proactive cooperator. What does that mean he may have been doing for the special prosecutor . Some have suggested that could mean he wore a wire. That is speck tative. Ultimately, it means he was cooperating with mueller when no one knew it. All right, thank you very much, paula. A leading Democratic Party lobbyist under scrutiny today after his firm was linked to pana for tmanaforts indictment. Tony podesta resigned from it yesterday. He is the brother of the chairman of Hillary Clintons campaign. He lobbied for the pro russian Ukrainian Group that was named as having tied to manafort. The indictment says manafort has two Unnamed Companies to lobby on batch of russian interest in ukraine. The bo des ta group does not say it was one of those companies. Saying they are cooperating and taking every possible step to provide documentation to confirm compliance with the law. Tech giants will Tell Congress today about the extent of russian efforts to influence last years elections through social social media ya.

Those posts may have reached as many as 126 million users. Twitter plans to tell the committee it closed more than 2,700 accounts linked to the same group of russian operatives. Investigators in niger is working to find the organizers of an attack that killed four american soldiers. Deborah petta is in the capital. One issue is why the unit was operating in a region beyond the governments kralcontrol. Deborah, good morning. Reporter good morning. We spoke to a nigerien soldier. He claims he personally knew the four americans killed and they trained him in counterterrorism tactics. He recalls cracking military jokes with him, despite the rau language barrier. He believes the ambushed troops were deliberately delayed in the village of tongo tongo, in the region known as tillaberi. The government has absolute no control there and is investigating the suspicion that some of the villagers might have been complicit in this attack. This is one of the most remote and chaotic war zones in the world. More than a dozen extremist groups operating along the border between mali and niger. This particular attack was coordinated by isis in the greater sahel and is led by Abu Walid Al Sahrawi and been actively recruiting in that region. The presence of american troops there would have drawn immediate attention and that begs the question why they went into such a dangerous location with very little backup. Norah. Very good question, deborah petta, thank you. Backlash growing over Kevin Spaceys response to a Sexual Misconduct allegation. The International Academy of Television Arts and sciences is revoking spaceys emmy founders award. A growing number of celebrities and organizes are now condemning him.

I will not yield reporter house of cards star kevin spacey is facing Harsh Criticism from hollywood and the Gay Community over his apology to actor anthony rapp. I was told to expect a vulcan. Reporter rapp, a broadway veteran now featured in Star Trek Discovery told buzz feed news he remembers spacey picking him up and putting him on the bed and then laying down on top of him. It allegedly happened after a new york party more than 30 years ago. When rapp was just 14. Spacey says he doesnt remember the incident but apologized for any inappropriate drunken behavior. He then revealed he is gay. Daniel reynolds is Senior Editor at the advocate, an lgbt interest magazine. Kevin spacey took what should be a proud and joyous moment, coming out, and conflated it with Something Like sexual assault. Reporter rapps accusation comes amid a wave of harassment claims against nbcs mark halperin, director james toback and movie mogul weinstein. Weinstein subsequently resigned from the Producers Guild of america which on monday banned him for life. Spaceys apology was scrutinized by other gay actors including wanda sykes, billy ike near, george takei and zachary quinto. Calling the statement a manipulation to deflect attention from a serious accusation. Thats another kind of silencing of the victim. Reporter the president of glaad, a gay rights organization, also condemned spaceys statement, saying this is not a coming out story about kevin spacey but a story of survivorship by anthony rapp and all those who bravely speak out against unwanted sexual advances, norah. All right, jericka, thank you. New questions about two women who say they were stranded on a sailboat for months in the pacific ocean. The dramatic moment when a navy ship rescued them last week. Coast guard says the two had an emergency beacon on board but they never turned it on. Vladimir dutiers of our streaming network cbsn. The details dont seem to add up. On a journey from hawaii to tahiti when they began with one problem after another, now the details are raising questions. Jen fell apel and tasha fuiava were overwhelmed with joy. They say they had been floating helplessly for months, desperate to be rescued. We had tears. We were like, they see us. Reporter the sailors are under new scrutiny as the investigation is turning up unusual details. The u. S. Coast guard says the pair had an emergency position indicating radio beacon or epirb on board. Its a device that communicates with satellites to send a boats location to emergency responders. It works when the boater manually switches it on or when its submerged in water. If something were to go down and you lost whatever emergency gear you did have, you have a life jacket thats on and usually they have a epirb inside or some kind of strobe so we know where to find you. May day, may day, were sinking. Reporter the coast guard says epirbs save lives. It did here in march 2016 when crews saved two fishermen whose boat sank off the florida coast. But it didnt help jennifer and tasha because their beacon wasnt activated. The women claim they suffered crisis after crisis after slamming into near hurricaneforce winds. They say part of their mast broke. Their engine flooded. And their Communications System failed them. Coast guard petty officer tara mollo said we asked why during this course of time they did not activate the epirb. Appel stated they never felt like they were in distress, like in a 24hour period, they were going to die. Yet here she said the opposite. Had they not failed to locate us, we would have been dead within 24 hours. Reporter appel says in retrospect there were two instances where she should have used the epirb. The coast guard says there is no criminal investigation under way right now. Cbs news reached out to both women and we have yet to hear back from them. I dont want to doubt this story, vlad. So happy, the women survived. Now everyones going mm. There are some questions. Ah. Bummer. Thank you, vlad.

South carolina lawmakers are examining the states juvenile Justice System after the death of a 16yearold in state care. Delquan seagers died at a remote Wilderness Camp for nonviolent juvenile offenders. The department of juvenile justice sent him there for violating probation on a shoplifting charge. The camp is operated by amikids, a National Nonprofit that runs 44 Youth Programs in nine states. Amikids received more than 54 million in state funding last year. Only on cbs this morning, Tony Dokoupil shows us why there are questions over the teenagers death. Tony, good morning. Good morning. Delquan seagers first landed in state custody after stealing candy from a discount store. He died the day before thanksgiving in 2015 of asthma, according to a coroners report, but now a whistleblower says that delquan was actually beaten and his death may be part of a wider pattern of violence and abuse. You got the defibrillator . Yes, maam. Shadeana seagers can hardly bear the 911 call from the night her son collapsed at the amikids camp in South Carolina. Push harder. Push harder. But she listens to it because she does not believe that her son, an avid basketball player, died of asthma. Did he have an inhaler . Hmmmm. Had he been suffering asthma attacks regularly . He never had asthma attacks. He had asthma, but it wasnt severe asthma. The story she does believe, the story her daughter uncovered on facebook, is that delquan was beaten by other camp residents. Do you feel like you were lied to . Yes. Almost two years. A state audit released in january found the department of juvenile justice which oversees the camps did not properly investigate claims that the death involved foul play. The department claims the death was fully investigated. How would you characterize the investigation into what happened to delquan . Slow, tedious, like no one cared. Dwight marshall is a former camp supervisor who was fired in an unrelated incident. Does delquan remind you of your own son . Yes, sir, he did. Hes speaking out because he was like a son. Marshall said he told the state and amikids in writing that according to a witness, delquan had been hit in the chest before he died. Both organizations deny receiving these documents. Marshall says the problem isnt just violent teens, but some violent staffers too. Kicks, slaps, punches, closed fist, close range. In 2015, according to investigators in florida, a teenager at an amikids facility was body slammed by a staffer who was fired for failing to call for assistance. And last year in union county South Carolina, an amikids Camp Director was charged with unlawful neglect after allegedly choking a 15yearold. Two other staffers are accused of covering it up. That case is still pending. But shadeana seagers, who is not yet mourning delquan has heard enough. She wants amikids held accountable. I want him back but i cant have him. Whats going to help . Justice. In a statement to cbs news, amikids said multiple investigations by both local and state authorities found the organization not at fault for delquans death. They commend the staff response that night. They say safety is something all amikids programs take seriously. Norah. Wow, thats really difficult. Sounds like you need to have another investigation. You go there for a shoplifting charge and end up dead and his mother says he didnt have an asthma attack . A lot of questions tony raised. A teenage surfer is being called a hero after rescuing a boater off the south florida coast. 13yearold sam ruskin was surfing when a fishing boat capsized in the strong current. Sam rushed toward the man and gave him his surfboard to stay afloat. We were like whats going on . There was this guy and he was like coming around the inlet, so i paddled to the end of the inlet where the current is and gave him my surfboard. Wow. The two of them then made it safely back to shore. I saw an interview with sams dad. Sam was in trouble, too. He said the fact that his teenage son jumped into action so quickly shows the type of character he is. I wanted to say, well, you raised him.

A california Clothing Company faces a billion dollar lawsuit from clients who claim it is acting like a pyramid scheme. Li lieu larose sells items and some of the plaintiffs say their association with lularoe has brought them to financial ruin. Anna werner is in los angeles with the allegations and the companys response. Anna, good morning. Reporter good morning. Lularoe says it has more than 80,000 independent fashion retailers who have sold more than 2 billion in lularoe apparel so far this year. But now some of those retailers are suing. They claim they were misled into investing thousands of dollars into lularoe merchandise in hopes of making huge profits. We spoke with one of the proposed lawsuits class action members who says that lularoe isnt what she thought it would be. I worked day and night. It was far from being parttime. It was definitely more than fulltime work. This one is called an amelia. Gabrielle aranda is a former retailer. She joined the company to spend more time with her family but ended up investing and losing more than 9,000 in just a few months. The lawsuit seeks a billion dollars for a proposed class of plaintiffs who it says were unknowingly recruited into lularoes pyramid scheme through manipulation and misinformation. None of the bonus payments depended upon an actual sale to a consumer. Some of you guys want to know how much inventory i got. Reporter aranda said she had difficulty selling clothes. Look at all this. Reporter but her team leader encouraged her to buy more inventory. Theyre getting more money off of what im investing but im not making anything off of it. I think my downfall was reinvesting the money that i made off of it. Reporter the lawsuit alleges that some consultants were told to borrow money, take out credit cards. Some sold breast milk to purchase inventory. In a statement lularoe said they had not been served with a complaint but believe the allegations are baseless, factually inaccurate and misinformed. They say their bonus plan only includes incentives that reward retail sales to consumers. Lularoe says it will vigorously defend against allegation and is confident it will prevail. Consumers really dont understand the way this works. No, they dont. Reporter Russell Winer is a marketing professor at the stern school of business. He believes the company is not a pyramid scheme. If there are products that are actually being sold to consumers, then its not a pyramid scheme. Reporter lularoe has faced complaints about other issues but said that the vast majority of their retailers are successful and are happy with their experience. The company said the sales have put hundreds of millions of dollars into the pockets of those independent fashion retailers. Now, coming up tomorrow on cbs this morning, we will have exclusively the cofounders of lularoe. Theyre going to talk with us about their business, how it got started, and also how they respond to some of these issues that have come up. Again, that will be a story youll see only on cbs this morning. Theres always two sides to every story so it will be interesting to hear what they have to say. Any time somebody asks you to sell your breast milk, i think id think twice about that one. You always find the most interesting detail in a story.

Significantly lowers the risk of stroke in people with afib not caused by a heart valve problem. It has similar effectiveness to warfarin. Xarelto® works differently. Warfarin interferes with at least 6 bloodclotting factors. Xarelto® is selective, targeting just one critical factor interacting with less of your bodys natural bloodclotting function. For afib patients wellmanaged on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® compares in reducing the risk of stroke. Dont stop taking xarelto® without talking to your doctor, as this may increase risk of stroke. While taking, you may bruise more easily, or take longer for bleeding to stop. It may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto® can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. Get help right away for unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. If youve had spinal anesthesia, watch for back pain or any nerve or musclerelated signs or symptoms.

Ahead, how investigators followed the money to indict Paul Manafort and rick gates, and scott stein of cnet is in studio 57 with a new iphone x. Find out if it can recognize his face no matter how he looks, but first heres todays eye opener at 8. Paul manafort and rick gates are the first to face charges in the russia election probe and there may be others soon. George papadopoulos may reveal who in the Trump Campaign knew that he was communicating with russian operatives and when. The Trump White House expects a special counsels investigation to wrap up soon, and says its business as usual. The white house is trying to distance himself from Paul Manafort. Its much harder to distance himself from a Campaign Aide who suggests there were efforts to set up meetings between the Trump Campaign and russia. That begs the question why are they going into such a dangerous location with very little backup. They began suffering one problem after another. Now the details of their story are raising questions. Former president barack obama has been summoned for jury duty next month in illinois and he plans to serve. But people are shocked that hes going to jury duty, and im, like, of course, obamas going to jury duty. How is he going to get out of it . Ive got to go to work. Hes the most famous unemployed person on the planet. Im charlie rose with gayle king and norah odonnell. President trumps former Campaign Chairman Paul Manafort and his associate rick gates are facing charges in the russia investigation and another person is cooperating with the special counsel. Court papers revealed yesterday that former Trump Campaign, Foreign Policy adviser george pop lop douse pleaded guilty. Papadopoulos was told in april of last year to join the campaign that russians had dirt on democratic candidate Hillary Clinton. The fbi says he lied about that. They say he learned that before joining the campaign. President trump tweeted this this morning. Few people knew the young lowlevel volunteer named george who has already proven to be a liar. Photo taken last march in a meeting with George Papadopoulos. They include conspiracy against the United States, Money Laundering and acting as an unregistered Foreign Agent. Theyre not related to the Trump Campaign. He repeated that there was no collusion. The 31page indictment alleges manafort and gates acted as unregistered agents of the Ukrainian Government and political parties. Theyre accused of funneling 75 million to multiple Shale Companies in the United States and overseas. Manafort allegedly laundered more than 18 million to pay for property renovation, landscaping along with cars and clothing. Cbs news legal analyst Rikki Klieman is here to explain how prosecutors are using the Money Laundering charges to build their case. Rikki, good morning. Good morning. All you have to do is read through this and boy, its detailed, every little payment to every landscaper and where it went through and the money wire transfers. How do you build a case like that as a prosecutor . Money laundering is really the movement of money in essence from the left hand to the right hand, but going through a series of transactions so that we dont know where it came from. In the United States, for example, if you deposit 10,000 or more, it then gets recorded. You have to fill out a form. If you go around depositing 10,000 in ten banks you are Money Laundering. What happens in manafort and gates is that youre looking at Financial Institutions and financial cri financial criminals. They wanted to hide, the left hand, that they wanted to hide getting paid by ukraine and get good things from the prorussia faction in the ukraine. So you have to structure or transfer or layer this money by putting it through a series of transactions in multiple Financial Institutions so it comes out over here. So what did they do . They set up dummy companies or what we call shell corporations and when the money goes into there and then it gets confused and then it comes out, and what can they do with it . We know according to the indictment that manafort winds up with having payments for mortgages, for clothing. Thats actually my favorite. 849,000 its not illegal to have an offshore entity, but to not pay taxes on it. Why do they register as a lobbyist for a foreign company. Thats actually a very good question because that would have made it simple. Apparently, many lobbyists in washington dont go through this registration. A fara is what we call it, Foreign Agent registration act prosecution is very rare indeed, but the reality is if they had simply registered their problem was theyd have to account for all of the money and they would have had to have paid taxes. One of the most intriguing things is with George Papadopoulos, this Young Campaign staffer was arrested july 27th and has been, according to this document released last night, a sealed court document, he has been a proactive cooperator, willing to cooperate with the government. What does that likely mean he may have been doing in the past three months . One of the things that we look at when you decide to plead guilty and you cooperated, are you a past cooperator, that is you told the government everything you already did . Or are you a quote, unquote, proactive cooperator, meaning in essence, youre, working for t government. Working how . Youre working to work down your sentence. So what might you do . You might Exchange Emails with people, texts with people, talk to people, have phone calls with people. You can get evidence. You might wear a wire. Do any of these charges, does the president of the United States have any reason to be concerned about the charges that were hearing now. Personally, he probably does have concerns not only for himself, but his administration, but when it comes to legally, the manafortgates indictment on its face, read the indictment, all 31 pages has nothing to do with President Trump or the campaign, but the obvious thing that the lawyers are saying and bob mueller would say is does the president have anything to worry about . Not yet. She wrote back, the docket shows that there are four sealed indictments filed friday with numbers between indictments that we learned about yesterday. So those numbers do suggest that there are other people who have been charged by the special counsel that we dont yet know about just like the papadopoulos case. Thats why papadopoulos is so much more alarming because one of the things that we know is that if you seal one indictment and you have one guy working for you, there are others. The reasons he might ought to be concern side this is a very aggressive effort and very aggressive investigation and as what happened yesterday. He is relentless, he is dogged and he is ethical. Bob mueller will not rest, at the same time, if he doesnt find it, he will say he didnt find it. Thank you, rikki. Interesting. Papadopoulos is something that were all learning to say over and over again. Thank you, Rikki Klieman. Always good to have you at the table. Facebook, twitter and google representatives will testify on capitol hill today about Russian Election meddling. Nancy cordes is on capitol hill with what we expect to learn about that. Nancy, good morning. Reporter good morning. We are going to learn that a Russian Internet firm, essentially a trolling firm had a much wider reach than initially believed. Facebook is going to tell senators that 29 million of its users directly received russian content. Were talking about ads and fake news, but then it gets worse. They unknowingly shared that material and reshareded it and as a result facebook is going to tell senators today that up to 126 million u. S. Users may have viewed that material within a two and a halfyear timeframe and facebook executives will note that this is still a tiny fraction of what people see in their news feeds every day, but twitter is going to testify as well today and reveal that it found more than 2700 accounts linked to that same russian trolling firm. The accounts have been suspended and is taking steps to prevent future ones from being created. Twitter, facebook and google are really going through the ringer here on capitol hel top hill ov next two days and they were initially slammed by members of congress for not understanding the scope of this problem, but now senators say, norah that they feel that the companies have gotten a handle of it and that they truly want to figure out ways to protect their users. Big day on capitol hill, nancy, thank you. A push to end Daylight Savings time is gaining momentum. Meg oliver shows how falling back an hour changes more than you might think.

A Massachusetts Commission plans to vote tomorrow on whether the state should quit Daylight Savings time and join the Atlantic Time Zone instead. The move will put it one hour ahead of the eastern time zone from november through february. Meg oliver is in acushnet, massachusetts. Good morning. Reporter norah, good morning. This is the time of year when growers across new england are busy from sun up to sundown harvesting cranberries in boggs like this, but once the clocks turn back an hour theyre up against an earlier sunset and something the state Commission Wants to change. Massachusetts cranberry harvest peaks in the fall. Every hour of dault is precious for a cranberry grower. Oh, it is. It is. Reporter Scott Harding is one of many growers dependent on daylight to get the job done. You have to have everything picked up before the sun goes down. Reporter this sunday, the first day, marking the end of Daylight Saving, the sun will set here at 4 33 p. M. , but those long winter nights could one day be a thing of the past. A report issued by a commission of state lawmakers found that by moving to the Atlantic Time Zone, shorter winter nights would increase the states competitiveness in attracting and retraining a talented workforce. Reporter why change it now . State senator Ilene Donoghue is the commission chair. We love to attract millennials and they love to come here and work, but one thing we hear is they dont like the weather and they dont like when its dark. Reporter when did you start researching . Dr. David prerau. Every live tv show in new england would be one hour later. So youd have the Football Games and the Academy Awards and things like that lasting deep into the morning. Reporter could massachusetts do this alone . I think anythings possible, but its not what we recommend. Massachusetts is not a big state. People travel back and forth over borders for work, for shopping and a lot of activities, and so it would cause confusion if we went it alone. Reporter donoghue wants new york and new england to follow suit, but many worry that shifting more daylight to the evening would bring more darkness to the morning when children are on their way to school, but the Commission Says they would delay School Start Times to fix that. Gayle . Two thumbs down. Not for this . No. We dont need another time zone. It looks beautiful in the cranberry fog. So beautiful. I still say two thumbs down. Shows you the perfect impact of light.

Apple stock reached an alltime high yesterday after preorders for the iphone x sold out in minutes. The exclusive Anniversary Edition iphone arrived in apple stores this friday, but it may take weeks to ship the device it customers who preordered online. Scott stein is Senior Editor with our partners at cnet and hes been testing and reviewing the iphone x over the past 24 hours. Here he is with the new phone. Scott, good morning. Show us the phone. Good morning. Here it is. Okay. I like the size. I like the size. I think the size is right and thats basically its two different sizes before, the plus and they definitely tried to cram as much screen which other phone manufacturers have done. Apple is doing that now in their own model. What are the other big plusses for this . Its extra camera features. It feels like a car that has the little upgrades. Extra camera features. Apple is pushing very hard on true depth which is the face i. D. Camera that replaces touch i. D. That will also enable things down the road for augmented reality in the face and thats not here yet. Thats basically little steps. Its really about the screen and its about the extra camera features for a lot of people. We have to get used to swiping on this one. To navigate, you have to swipe. No home button so it changes things. You unlock with face i. D. You will have to swipe up to open the phone and there are other things now that you get to the controls you have to swipe up from the top so you have to learn. You tested the face recognition. How did it go . It worked better than i thought. I tried dint looks and i tried to shave my beard and different combinations. You shaved your beard . In phases and i tried putting on a fake beard and that worked, too. My sunglasses worked and apples it works with scarves and hats and if you went too crazy it is off the realm and in darkness it worked, too. Take the facial recognition and the full screen, about thor camera. What else . So those are the key things. I would say better camera, full screen, facial recognition. 1,000 price. A 1,000 price. Youre dealing with close to 1,000 with the iphone 8 plus and thats how apple does the incremental things. Psychologically, 1,000 is different. I think for a lot of people may want to wait and a lot of people may want to show it off. You can adjust to not having a home button . I think right now im finding it a little tough. If youre on the go and the press to unlock is nice and i think maybe future updates and something to unlock a little faster. Thank you, scott. Got to have you here.

Welcome back to cbs this morning. First up, our green room. Whos there . One guy says youre only as good as your last party. Whos that . Ian slayinger . That would be you, ian schrager. And jeremy piven says ari gold who . Right now its time to show you some of this mornings headlines. Usa today has a report that Climate Change is already impacting human health and its potentially irreversible. A team of doctors, and scientists studied the issue. From 2000 to 2016 an additional 125 Million People worldwide were exposed to heat waves, weatherrelated disasters were up 46 and rising temperatures have led to a 5. 3 drop in labor productivity. Time magazine says for the first time the fda is moving to revoke a claim with soy and heart health. It allowed products to claim that soy protein could reduce Heart Disease risk. The fda is now skeptical of the evidence. The atlantic says your favorite pumpkin pie probably has no actual pumpkin in it. Oh, no it often contains its to no field pumpkin. The big orange pumpkins used for jackolanterns because they dont taste that great. The fda allows food sellers to label pumpkin as anything that comes from golden sweet squash or a mixture of squash and pumpkin. Thats why i stick to sweet potato pie. New york is expected to repeal its cabaret law. That was enacted during prohibition. The original target is racially mixed jazz clubs in harlem. There are now roughly 25,000 eating and drinking establishments in new york city. Only 97 have a cabaret license. And variety says one direction is the first band since the beatles to have three former members with number one solo albums. This reached the top of the album chart last week. Harry stiles and zane malleck did it. Theyre in a very good club. Great club. Speaking of clubs, ian schrager has revolutionized the entertainment and Hospitality Industries over the past four decades. He first made a name for himself in the 1970s as cofounder of the legendary nightclub studio 54, a celebrity hot spot for guests like Michael Jackson and steven tyler. In 1984 he introduced the worlds first Boutique Hotel. His hotels still shake up the hospitality market with his Stylish Designs and attention to detail. His newest project with a mantra luxury for all. Rooms start at 150. He aims to disrupt the industry once again and create a new experience for travelers. Ian schrager joins us now. Good morning. Good morning. Public. What does that mean . Tell us. Well, you know, everything changes, culture, fashion, everything, except hotels havent changed. I think the very notion of luxury has changed. And it shouldnt be about our price or business classification, it should be about an experience. And anybody and everybody that wants to participate with luxury should have the opportunity to do it. But you say, ian, theres no doormen, no checkin desk, no spa, no room service. This does not sound like luxury to me. Well, luxury is a state of being. Its a feeling. Its how it makes you feel. Like room service and a suite. When you put in technology, it lacks a personalization. But i think thats hogwash. I mean if the technology is done well, if its executed well, if it has that wizardry about it, it elevates the spirit and lifts the experience. How does it work then . When you go in and check in and you do it with technology, you are kind of startled by it all, its so easy. And part of the fun and experience of staying in a modern place for modern people. Airbnb has had 200 million guests i think since 2008. Is this a reaction or a sense that the industry is changing, and thats why youre going to have a hotel like this . The industry is changing. Airbnb is really a disruptive idea. The only way to compete with a disruptive idea is to come up with another disruptive idea. And i think the only way the Hotel Industry can compete with airbnb is to do those things airbnb cannot do, which is to provide social and communal spaces and experiences. And thats what weve been doing for 30 years and well continue to do it. I still dont know what happens when i walk into your hotel. I walk in. How do i know what room to go to . I still dont understand what youre saying. Ell, you would gn ipad. W k in with your phone, you can get to your room a lot faster. You dont have to wait in line. I mean you dont have to talk to people . Okay. We have we do have people there. Every new idea is met with skepticism. Like the Boutique Hotel 25 years ago, like studio was 40 years ago. But this is a new and modern idea for todays people. Speaking of studio 54, there is now a book out about that as well. What was it about studio 54 that made it such a hot place in its time . Didnt you go, charlie . Did you go . No, i never did. You never did . Okay, charlie, i never danced there. It was a phenomenon. It made the heartbeat faster. Its difficult to put it in a box and define it. Its just when you went there, it was something really special. It was transformative. It gave you an absolute freedom, which is an idea we all seek. And thats why i think 40 years later, people are still mesmerized by it and still talk about it. Did you ever think of trying to recreate it . Well, i tried to recreate it with the hotels. Not what happened 40 years ago because times are different, but that kind of magic. I still try and do that. How much of it was the fact that there were bouncers and either you had to be somebody or know somebody to go . It was nothing. It was nothing to do with it. You cant fool the people. It was a special place. When you went in there, you got this incredible rush. You know, you saw 2,000 people dancing as if there was only one entity. All of those things were smoke screens, distractions. The place was special. And everything since then has been special, which validates the idea. Well, youre still doing that because you say youre only as good as your next party. It sounds like youre planning Something Special with public. Were having a Halloween Party tonight. Go to your iphone, you know where to be. Youve got a good track record. Thank you very much. Jeremy piven calls himself a caveman when it comes to technology, but the actor stars in a tech centric role in wisdom of the crowd. Ahead, why he found this character so appealing and where did he get the inspiration . Hell tell us. First, its 8 38. Time to check your local weather. I want every available option on the table for how to get this film made by the end of the day. Whoever succeeds will forever be my family member. Whoever doesnt, will be cleaning tanning beds in [ bleep ] rancho cucamonga. I love that character, thats emmy winner jeremy piven who played hottempered power agent ari gold on entourage. He takes on a much more serious role in the new drama called wisdom of the crowd. He plays jeffrey tanner, a wealthy tech entrepreneur torn to pieces over his daughters murder. He believes the wrong man went to prison so he 20s a realtime crowd sourcing application. It affects everyone, including his coworkers. Im worried about you. It was 15 years ago. Ive dealt with it so just stop trying to fix me. I am not trying to fix you. You lost your brother. No, i didnt lose my brother. He killed himself. Okay . Its part of who i am. Nothing is going to make that go away and nothing is going to bring him back any more than sophie is going to bring back mia. Im so sorry. No, no. Listen, take all the time that you need. Its kind of hard to unring that bell, jeremy piven joins us at the table. The premise is fascinating, hes a grieving father, gives up his company and offers a 100 million reward to anybody out there who can help find his daughters killer. So youre really engaging the crowd instantly. Is he a hero . I think he is, but i beleve hes an antihero because hes a guy in doing my research, because youre right, i am a caveman with technology. In reading about steve jobs, he became spiritual. And i think when jeffrey tanner, my character, lost his daughter, he was such an ambitious guy who was running a company, not unlike reddit, and then he decided, you know what, im going to put everything into a crowd source crimesolving site to figure out who killed the daughter and nothing else matters in this life. Not being number one. Making money. Making money, all of these distractions that us as americans, you know, have in our lives. And as a result of this crowd sourcing, theres all these other crimes that end up being solved, right . Which is part of the story line. It is, and thats the procedural aspect of it. And i think both my character and i resist that a little bit. And i think whats they resist it quite a lot, not a little bit. They resist it quite a lot. Yeah, indeed. I think that i think that thats an interesting duality in the way that hes singularly focused on figuring out who killed his daughter, and maybe a little selfish in that way. But youre going to see that he realizes that people want to do something good in this life, and its inspiring to him. These are somber subjects. Is there comedy here . I hope so. I hope so. I think thats the fun that weve been having with it all is finding that balance. Ted humphries, who is the creator of the show, is brilliant and also very collaborative. Were all finding our way as a cast and so we are we are going for our laughs. Its nice. So were you trying to find something thats the total opposite of ari gold . Listen, you played it so well people actually thought you were rich, white, obnoxious, took no prisoners. Thats how well you played the role. Yes. Was that hard for you to deal with, jeremy . People would meet you and expect you to be him. Yeah, yeah. And any actor that rails against the universe for being type cast is you know, theres a long line to get into. But i think if you embrace your characters, the first thing you do as an actor is you dont judge your character in any way, shape or form. You cant. If you judge them, youre not going to be giving them as much possible depth or integrity as they can, because no one is a devil in their own story, right . So, you know, do i have the same ideology as ari gold did . No. Im a stage actor from chicago, im not a guy whos parents were in theater too. Yes, indeed, indeed. We all know the real ari. He is an authentic, prolific character. That is such a euphemism. I love it. Thats terrific. He is a one of a kind. Do you talk to him about the character . Well, he was my agent, so back in the day, so, yeah, i got to witness it. You saw it . Yeah, he was the muse definitely for that character. And jeffrey tanner, who im playing now, you know, it was a nice segue, wasnt it . Ari doesnt dislike this is character, just saying. No, no. The real ari doesnt dislike his character. Right. Yeah, thats a whole we could spend a long time with that. We wont, we wont. But to now play someone who is so incredibly human. And hes broken. He hasnt dealt with his grief. And i think its such a fertile premise for a show and for a character that im loving it. And i think someone that thats driven by his grief and obsessed with finding the killer because he thinks it will soothe his grief and thats not the case. I want to go back to charlies question about your acting family background. You say even with the genes that you have, your dna, acting wasnt a foregone conclusion for you . I think, you know, it wasnt. I was lucky enough to grow up in the piven theater on stage with my family. I was butchering things at a very early age and having a blast. But i didnt think it would lead to anything. Because when youre in chicago, you just dont think that you could ever be on television or the movies or anything like that. And i thought i was going to be a 59 jewish linebacker and that never happened. I dont think that rarely happens in this life. So i was delusional. I was on stage and improvising and doing these great pieces, but not thinking it is going to go anywhere, so i wasnt putting pressure on myself and there was no desperation. Well, you didnt turn out to be a 59 jewish linebacker, but its worked out okay for you, jeremy piven. We are cheering you on here at cbs. Thank you very much.
